Blockland vs Kenshi
Blockland
Blockland may be a voxel-based sandbox game in name, same as games like Minecraft, Roblox and others, but in reality, the game is a whole lot more unique due to its Lego-like features. In fact, due to its looks, many have likened the game to the unfortunately shuttered Lego Minifigures Online. Playable in single player or multiplayer, the game allows its players to unleash their creativity by creating literally anything they can think of. The game also has tons of different blocks, textures and assets (pre-made stuff) to cater to their creative needs, allowing players to come up with the most exciting mini-games and mazes as well as beautiful locations for themselves and their friends to hang out at. Players can even drive cars (sometimes vertically up the wall of a building, breaking all rules of perceived gravity in the game), ride bikes, pilot planes, and more.Although the game is no longer getting updates and apparently its community has been dwindling, Blockland is still an amazing game that answers the question of what Minecraft would look like if its "Lego-fied".

Kenshi
Kenshi is an open world, semi-sandbox, party-based RPG that offers players an completely open-ended gameplay rather than opting to force players to go through a storyline. You can be anyone you like in this game, be it an honest trader, an adventurer, a bandit or others. Scavenge important resources, including weapons and armor, from corpses and use them for your own. Recruit new companions from towns, build an outpost of your own, and grow it to accomodate more of your companions. Of course, as your little town thrives, bandits and jealous rivals will attack you and you'll need to make sure all your people have what they need to defend the town and repel the invaders.Sounds like fun? Well, it definitely is. However, Kenshi, being a pretty ambitious early access game, does have it fair share of flaws. The game still has plenty of glitches still and can be really hard to get into, especially at the beginning of the game where you literally have no idea what you need to do.
That said, the game is very unique because it has a pretty rare theme and its gameplay - a combination of party-based survival/ base building - is also oddly rare among the other games on the market. So, you might want to check this game out.
